ThinkTanks appetizer in PCAction (Germany)

Whoohoo! ThinkTanks made it into the german PCAction magazine (one of the 3 major german PC game magazines):

In english, it's something like:
Get it on the chain!
There is no tank game with comic graphics? Not yet! Watch out for ThinkTank.
Action | At the end of April, you can cruise and shoot around with intelligent tanks in the Arcade-shooter "ThinkTank". Intelligent?
Exactly, because there are no soldiers in those rattling comic colosses, there are only their brains, hijacked by some alien race.
And for public amusement, they have to fight each other in various arenas. The tanks differ in speed and weaponry. Not only the single player mode, but especially the internet-capable multiplayer mode will be great fun.

It hope this translation makes at least *some sense in english... ;)
Congrats, Bravetree! :D

I think this is super cool and I want to thank Beffy for letting us know about it. It is really cool when you get press like this from places you did not even know existed.

Is there anywhere I can buy a copy in the USA or online?

Hallo I'm an American that has been living and working in Germany over the last 20 years. I'm hooked on this game online and telling everyone that I know about it. My compliments to Brave Tree. Maybe you all should think about a multi language version of ThinkTanks and get in the European market. I could also maybe help with the German translation. I speak, read and write fluent German.
